1098 Waiting for Her

Drap! Drap! Drap!

"MAKE WAY!"

Yelling to the soldiers, Nan Luo quickly rushed over to the avalanche behind him. When they saw that the avalanche had stopped, the soldiers also begin to pull their comrade out. Some of them were partially buried, which helped the others find them easily.

The rescued soldiers heaved a sigh of relief.

At the same time, they felt the terror of this large avalanche that suddenly came crashing down.

If not for Nan Luo telling them that this was purposely done, they would have never believed that this would have happened in their wildest dream. Who would have thought that it was possible to cause avalanche and buried more than 10,000 soldiers?

No one would have thought about it before.

*thunk*

Shoveling the dirt, Nan Luo felt his heart turned cold.

When the avalanche came crashing down just now, he felt pain all over his body. And even now, he felt as if his entire body was constricted. He couldn't imagine what it would be like for Nan Hua.

"NAN! ANSWER ME IF YOU CAN HEAR ME!" Nan Luo as he tried to dig as fast as possible.

The soldiers nearby were stunned and then began to work too.

In their eyes, Adjutant Nan was someone who had helped them countless times. They couldn't imagine what it would be like without that adjutant who had helped them to get away from the gate of hell.

Upon hearing that Adjutant Nan was also buried, they all voluntary helped to find him.

"ADJUTANT NAN!"

"ANSWER IF YOU CAN HEAR US!"

"NAN!"

Behind Nan Luo, Xiao Yan was also helping frantically. He was the only one in Nan Luo's army who knew Adjutant Nan's real identity as Nan Hua. There was no way that he could possibly let her die out here.

If she really die, there was no doubt that Nan Luo would be utterly depressed that he might not even want to live anymore. Not only that, he knew very well that there were countless people who truly cared for Nan Hua would never be able to accept her death.

Old Master Nan would definitely cause storm to rage on at the battlefield. Traveling Doctor Liu might not be able to accept having another one of his disciple dying young again. Dark Moon Organization that was working with Nan Hua wouldn't be able to stay silent if they heard that she died. The mountain Tribe would never be able to accept it either.

And then there were also many others who would be affected.

Xiao Yan knew very well that even though Nan Hua seemed to be just like an ordinary girl, she had a lot of people who were paying attention to her. There were a lot of people who cared for her.

He had watched her from a distance, so he understood.

Despite the young girl seemingly not understanding her own importance to others, many people cared for her greatly. When they thought that something happened to her back then, it had already caused storm in the Capital City.

Now that she had interacted with more people and more organizations.

Her real death would affect more people.

They would definitely cause storm and chaos to fall upon this land. And at that time, there wouldn't be anyone who could stop it from destroying many things. A lot of people would lose their lives because of it.

He could never let that happen.

She had to stay alive.

No matter what.

...

It was dark and narrow.

Nan Hua had moved behind the rocks and trees, but it was inevitable that the dirt and rocks would still cover her. it came crashing down at such speed that it pulled along most of the thing that blocked its way.

The surrounding felt so heavy that her body seemed to be pressed down by several times gravity.

It was so heavy that Nan Hua couldn't move.

She could feel her vision turned blurry, which meant that she might have knocked her head when the avalanche hit. The protection from the rock and trees were not enough to completely protect her.

They only served to block some of the momentum before they hit her.

It was not enough.

'I died because of an avalanche. Will I die because of an avalanche once more?' The thought floated within Nan Hua's mind as she tried her best to focus.

Nan Hua had never feared death. She knew very well that death has always been very near to her, yet she always escaped from its grasp from many occasions. There were times when she felt that she wouldn't be able to survive anymore and relied merely on her body's instinct to be able to survive.

Many times, she felt that her entire body was destroyed.

Yet, she still lived and survived.

She continued to live and braved through danger again and again. Putting her own life on the line in order to finish countless missions that she didn't even know the importance for so many people. Taking the lives of so many people, bearing their hatred and grievances as she took their loved ones away from them.

Her hands had been stained with the blood of countless people.

They were all probably waiting for the day when she could finally die. That way, they would feel at peace, knowing the killer had died.

'Has my time come?'

Nan Hua could feel that her breathing became even more difficult. It was hard to survive for more than 15 minutes after being buried because of the lack of air and so on. Even if she could survive a bit longer due to her training, it wouldn't allow her to survive if she was not dug out.

And in this vast area, could Nan Luo really find her so quickly?

"NAN!"

The faint shout from Nan Luo woken Nan Hua up.

Her eyes regained their focus.

'Why did I come to this world?'

This was no longer the same world as the one where she used to be. This was no longer the world where she was nothing more than an unloved orphan and a tool used by the organization to kill so many people.

In this world, she had a lot of people who cared for her wellbeing.

She had started over from being a child who didn't have anything much in this world to be the leader of an organization. Building her connection, befriending others and interacting with so many people.

In her previous life, she would never interact normally.

Everything that she did would be done for the sake of finishing the mission. Even the people who interacted with her only knew her fake identity that was made for the convenience of the mission.

They never knew the real her.

But it was different now.

They were interacting with the real her, knowing her identity, or at least, half of her real identity, and knew her true nature.

She had always told herself that she was not allowed to lose.

Her family members are waiting for her.

Her friends were waiting for her.

Her people were waiting for her.

And...

Her fiancé is waiting for her.

Nan Hua gritted her teeth and forced her hand to grip her sword and swung it across the thick dirt upwards.

*screech*
